WRTC has the best operators competing from the same location with similar antennas. The competition is intense with even small mistakes making a difference in the final standings.

Here are two examples that show how the contest scoring evolved over the course of the contest. It is quite exciting to watch the teams as they change positions.

The WRTC-2022 organizing committee has announced the teams that will compete in Italy in July 2023.

Qualification Teams

Youth Teams

Wild Card Teams

Donor Teams

Congratulations to all teams for earning their place into the event.

At the WRTC 2022 Association Assembly on 23 April 2021, having previously consulted the WRTC Sanctioning Committee, the assembly and Organizing Committee decided to postpone WRTC 2022 one year to 2023. There have been no changes in the qualification process or to the overall structure of the event and its sponsoring committee.  A detailed report on the qualification standings will be prepared and released at a later date.

In consideration of the worldwide public health challenges from the

Covid-19 pandemic, we believe our decision is reasonable. We have received many communications from competitors and friends of WRTC and have taken them very seriously.

There will be further announcements regarding WRTC as soon as new arrangements have been made.  Thank you for your understanding and commitments in support of our adventure!
